Your thoughts on the ‘party of family values’?

Ouchie 🤕 😂

As they say, Evil will enter your life clad in the flag, holding a bible in one and a child in the other. The things you hold sacrosanct is the things they hide behind. Any scrutiny you subject them to is twisted to become an attack on the things we all hold dear. If you just take a step back it both becomes obvious and makes perfect sense why but sadly, so few people ever takes the time to question the narrative that they are being forcefed.

So tired of the furtive obfuscation, unnecessary nuance, weak excuses and bad faith from ALL the media.

If there's was intoxicated "consent" OR coercion OR a minor it's called RAPE!

THIS IS NOT COMPLICATED!

The party of family values strikes again...

I predict 99% of right wingers will claim it's a lefty witch-hunt and he's totally innocent. Won't belong before they gang up on his victim and try to discredit her.

People like that never work alone, I'll guarantee other names will surface.

They'll just claim it's fake news or not even care. As long as it's not a democrat. Pedophiles and rapists are ok in their eyes as long as it's not lgbtq or people of color.

They won't care, as long as they get to treat people badly.

Yup and i wonder if Gaetz will make good on his threat and out other members of the party 🤔 🍿 😂

I don't know if you've read it? I skipped to the dissent and it's hilarious!

Basically: "We admit the findings are correct but it's unprecedented to release a report on a former representative since the last time that happened was 18 years ago"!

ethics.house.gov/.../Committee-Report.pdf

"I write on behalf of the members of the committee who do not support the release of the report regarding former Representative Matt Gaetz. We believe and remain steadfast in the position that the House Committee on Ethics lost jurisdiction to release to the public any substantive work product regarding Mr. Gaetz after his resignation from the House on November 14, 2024.

While we do not challenge the Committee’s findings, we take great exception that the majority deviated from the Committee’s well-established standards and voted to release a report on an individual no longer under the Committee’s jurisdiction, an action the Committee has not taken since 2006."

It's what passes for a "defence" in Republican circles these days: "he obviously did it, but since he avoided being held responsible, everybody should forget about it."

“but it's unprecedented to release a report on a former representative since the last time that happened was 18 years ago"!

Since when have they given a shit about precedence? Dobbs decision anyone? Lol just hilarity

Funny how the evil Dems ousts congressmen over a pic and repubs can't even agree of a pedo should be outed in the press. All values have collapsed on the right
